Kylee McCumber is a student at the Winchendon School and was placed in legal guardianship of her grandmother in 2009 due to her parents’ struggles with addiction. Her mother died of a heroin overdose when she was 14. At ten years old she realized that the food insecurity problems she faced were a common problem among her peers and she founded Kylee’s Kare Kits for Kidz.
She is an honor student, a varsity volleyball player , and has received an incredible number of awards recognizing her humanitarian efforts.
Victoria Kalisz is a Senior at Fairhaven High School. Her parents were New Bedford Jaycees and her uncle is a JCI Senator. She is an Honor Student and involved in Drama and Dance. Victoria was Miss New Bedford’s Outstanding Teen 2018 and Miss Massachusetts Outstanding Teen 2nd runner up in 2018 and 1st runner up in 2019. She performed on a national anti-bullying tour and three regional tours.
Our $500 scholarship for 2020 will be presented to
Thelma Gonzalez-Garcia is a Senior at Marlborough High School. Her mother is unemployed and her father is “not in the picture.” As a single teen Mom, she is looking for help to commute from home to attend Quinsigamond Community College. Her teachers highly recommended her efforts at balancing an academic workload while working a part-time job and balancing being a teenage mother.
We can be very proud of ALL our students!
